Everything Songtext
von Mac McAnally

Well it ain′t like me to come right out and say
But this is not an ordinary day
A momentary lapse of reason
One little act of treason
Like everything ain't too high a price to pay

Well the devil, he comes knocking at my door
Never once occurred to me to pray
Brief negotiation
It′s a strange situation
When everything ain't too high a price to pay


So long, hopes and dreams and grand designs
So long, yeah life does seem long sometimes
Time off for good behavior
Like a soldier or a savior
And everything ain't too high a price to pay

Better deals are out there to be made
A man needs collateral these days
It sound good at the time I guess
But there in that fine print it says
That everything ain′t too high a price to pay

So long, hopes and dreams and grand designs
So long, yeah life does drag on sometimes
Time off for good behavior
Like a soldier or a savior
And everything ain′t too high a price to pay


Well I always heard but now I understand
You can't take it with you anyway
What′s it worth to sacrifice
And try to make a wrong thing right
That's when everything ain′t too high a price to pay
